[Pt] Daily Market Profile / TPOA great mentor of mine once told me, trading is like driving. When you are driving, there are directions and road signs to follow. The key areas and levels from TPO market profile are the road signs in trading, you shouldn't trade without them much like you shouldn't drive without road signs, as you will get lost.
From Wikipedia: "A Market Profile is an intra-day charting technique (price vertical, time/activity horizontal) devised by J. Peter Steidlmayer, a trader at the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), ca 1959-1985. Steidlmayer was seeking a way to determine and to evaluate market value as it developed in the day time frame. The concept was to display price on a vertical axis against time on the horizontal, and the ensuing graphic generally is a bell shape--fatter at the middle prices, with activity trailing off and volume diminished at the extreme higher and lower prices." If you are unfamiliar with the concept, search for Market Auction Theory, Market Profile, and TPO on the web.
What's cool about this script?
As a professional trading, you should be drafting a trading plan and drawing all your key areas and levels before entering a trade. If you are trading with market profile, with this script, you no longer have to spend the time it takes to manually draw those key areas and levels. All are automatically generated with this script to give you the visual cues in your trades~!!
**IMPORTANT** Please note that due to the limitation on TradingView, there can only be limited number of boxes and lines that can be generated per indicator. Hence, this script only aims to provide you with as many key areas and levels as possible. This may be mitigated by having multiple instances of this indicator. Please use at your risk and discretion.
This script provides a comprehensive set of indicators / elements of daily TPO market profile, which includes the following:
- Market Profile based on TPO
- Point of Control (POC)
- Value Area (VA)
- Single Prints (SP)
- Excess (EX)
- Naked vs Visited (Touched) POC and VA
This script also includes the following key features that hopes to provide value in your trading:
- Automatically generated key areas and levels, including all the elements above
- Those key areas and levels will fade away as they become less significant, based on number of crosses and touches
- Customizable display settings
- Customizable session for generating the MP
- Two positions for MP placement
Setting descriptions:
Price ProfileThe indicator shows number of candles present in the horizontal box areas for the given time window. You can set up:
1) Start time
2) Stop time
3) Number of horizontal bars
SpaceTime TPOSpaceTime TPO Part of the SpaceTime Complete Suite
SpaceTime TPO Provides an modified codebased to remastered to display the TPO Calculations in a separate indicator with multiple new features, a separate release was necessary in order to maximise the usage of the draw history that can be provided.
Significantly improved from its predecessor Spacetime advanced, the display options used here are less resource heavy and therefore can display multiple profiles in comparison to the previous "high res lettering"
Full suite view:
The main additional advantage of this separate indicator comes in the form of Split TPO profiles ! This utilizes the tradingview display engine creating a whole new way to display data comparative to the candlestick method, doing so will help visualise the profile as it develops.
The Split profiles comes with a pro and con
Pro:
Split profile makes it easier to detect real price movement adjusted to tick
Also tracks the VA travel by history so it is easier to visualise value expansion!
Con:
Due to some limitation some data may occasionally be missed on very volatile candles
Fix:
Increase ticksize/Leave on wicks for candles to see these fluctuations
Update fix inbound: Will display the overflow in a dynamic way so no wicks are needed for all candles if this persists to be a problem
SpaceTime TPO also comes with the same advantages of multi session profile TPOs
Additionally comes with the ability to have a session line
Session Line tracking can continue with "Total" For full length of profile
And
"VA" for Value Area tracking
(or off)
Close tracking in the form of a square is available
Pending updates:
Split profile improvement
Close tracking improvement
Visible Range Mean Deviation Histogram [LuxAlgo]This script displays a histogram from the mean and standard deviation of the visible price values on the chart. Bin counting is done relative to high/low prices instead of counting the price values within each bin, returning a smoother histogram as a result.
Settings
Bins Per Side: Number of bins computed above and below the price mean
Deviation Multiplier: Standard deviation multiplier
Style
Relative: Determines whether the bins length is relative to the maximum bin count, with a length controlled with the width settings to the left.
Bin Colors: Bin/POC Lines colors
Show POCs: Shows point of controls
Usage
Histograms are generally used to estimate the underlying distribution of a series of observations, their construction is generally done taking into account the overall price range.
The proposed histogram construct N intervals above*below the mean of the visible price, with each interval having a size of: σ × Mult / N , where σ is the standard deviation and N the number of Bins per side and is determined by the user. The standard deviation multipliers are highlighted at the left side of each bin.
A high bin count reflects a higher series of observations laying within that specific interval, this can be useful to highlight ranging price areas.
POCs highlight the most significant bins and can be used as potential support/resistances.

Naked Intrabar POCThis indicator with an unfortunate and very non PC sounding name approximates (!) the intrabar point of control (POC) either from time or volume at price.
Due to pine limitations, bin size and the sample lower time frame selection will have at least some effect on the accuracy of the approximation. The trade off is between accuracy and historical availability, however bar replay can be used to view prior historical states beyond what is visible from the current real time bar.
In order for all intrabar POC circles to be visible, you will need to manually set the visual order of the indicator by bringing it to the front.
Since the POC represents a price point around which the highest market participation occurred, the exposed global variable intrabar_poc may (or may not) be interesting as an alternative to ohlc based source input.
VPLineVPLine is a brand-new line indicator which automatically draws historical POC line with volume profile histograms based on user input session and configurations.
A colossal amount of function is deployed on the indicator: historical POC line, historical VA, historical VA high/low, volume profile histograms, volume profile value text (bid/ask/total), threshold function that limits the extension of the POC line based on user input etc.
Session TPO Market ProfileIntroduction
Wikipedia: A Market Profile is an intra-day charting technique (price vertical, time/activity horizontal) devised by J. Peter Steidlmayer, a trader at the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), ca 1959-1985. Steidlmayer was seeking a way to determine and to evaluate market value as it developed in the day time frame. The concept was to display price on a vertical axis against time on the horizontal, and the ensuing graphic generally is a bell shape--fatter at the middle prices, with activity trailing off and volume diminished at the extreme higher and lower prices. In this structure he recognized the 'normal', Gaussian distribution he had been introduced to in college statistics.
Important : The market profile tool is designed to be used on the 30min timeframe, however, you can modify its parameters and use it on lower timeframes (15/10/5min)
This indicators displays the following information
Session open
TPO
Value area calculation zone
POC
Highlight of Single prints
Session High/Low
The current price (TPO Profile is often used isolated without any candlesticks on it)
Parameters
Session beginning configuration (not coded with a session input yet)
Number of candles to use for calculation (default 13 for a single session)
Extend yesterday's levels (VAH/VAL/POC)
Show/Hide Market profile calculation area (background color)
Bars number (number of rows that will be used to draw the profile)
Show/Hide TPO's
TPO Colors customization (For in/out of VA, VAL/VAH/POC/High/Low levels and single prints)
Show/Hide High/Low levels
Show/Hide VAL/VAH/POC Levels as lines
Enable/Disable Single prints highlighting
Value area size (as percent)
Show/Hide current price (corresponding to a line scaled on the "close" price)
Additional Notes
Each session is drawn when the day is over
To use as much space as possible, TPO's are not directly drawn on the area of their calculation (which can be confusing if you use candlesticks directly over it)
This script will probably be updated in the future (especially concerning its implementation which is a bit spaghetti coded for now) .
If you have interesting suggestions about new features that are usual within market profile tools and missing from this script , don't hesitate to suggest it.
MarketProfile HLMarketProfile HL dynamically calculates and displays a side histogram of the distribution of volumes with colors along a gradient, which is set to a given number of candles. The histogram is overlaid on the candlesticks to visually represent areas of market balance and imbalance. The indicator uses the concepts of statistical distribution and is based on the market profile theory.
The gradient color of the levels shows where more or less horizontal volume accumulates.
Adapts to any timeframe or instrument.
Customizable display of horizontal levels HL and POC.
The HL and POC levels protrude beyond the boundaries of the main histogram on the right for a more convenient determination of dynamic centers and accumulation boundaries.
-------------------------------------------
MarketProfile HL динамически рассчитывает и отображает боковую гистограмму распределения объемов с цветами по градиенту, которая настроена на заданное количество свечей. Гистограмма накладывается на свечи, чтобы визуально представить области рыночного баланса и дисбаланса. Индикатор использует концепции статистического распределения и основан на теории профиля рынка.
Градиентный цвет уровней показывает, где накапливается больше или меньше горизонтального объема.
Адаптируется к любому таймфрейму или инструменту.
Настраиваемое отображение горизонтальных уровней HL и POC.
Уровни HL и POC выступают за границы основной гистограммы справа для более удобного определения динамических центров и границ накоплений.
Market Profile Fixed ViewSome instruments does not provide any volume information, therefore, as a fixed volume profile user, I needed a fixed market profile indicator to use the same principles, regardless of whether the volumes are available or not.
This script draws a market profile histogram corresponding to price variations within a specific duration, you only need to specify Start and End date/time values to see the histogram on your chart.
Details
Two lines corresponding to highest/lowest prices are displayed around the histogram
The redline corresponds to the POC (point of control)
Options
Start calculation
End calculation
Bars number (histogram resolution, currently locked to a max value of 50 bars)
Display side/Width (allows to modify size of bars, to the left or to the right)
Bars/Borders/POC Color customization
Notes
This script will probably be updated (to add VAH/VAL zones, and maybe other options). However, some common market profile attributes have not been implemented yet since I don't really use them)
Market Profile Visible RangeSup TV, 2 important points .
1) surprisingly, it's the first MP Visible Range script on TV;
2) This one doesn't use any bagging/binning*, instead each row represents the time spent on the actual minimal price steps (aka ticks).
The script will be further extended with usual market profile related functionally in future updates. At this point we have:
- Profile itself (each row represents how many bars touch the given price);
- Mode of the profile (called POC)**;
* Still it will be introduced in future when I will find / design the proper aggregating technique. It is vital for processing very wide price ranges (for example, 500 days on ES futures).
** The script correctly calculates POC by finding all the modes in the data & choosing the closest one to data's midrange.
For this kind of technical instrument finally it was more convenient to use Pine Script 5 (btw it's my first Pine 5).
Basically this script is a side-effect of another R&D I'm doing, the stuff is useful tho so let's go.
By choosing length we both specify the amount of data to be processed & the profile's location screen-wise. It's pretty cool and & useful, on my screen it's always almost touching the left side and still always visible.
The code is heavily commented in order to be understood fast, nothing fantastic, just a lil patience required this time.
Rationale
Market & volume profiles are well known concepts, lotta info available, the most important point of all that is that MP is just another way of visualizing data that lets you notice things you don't usually notice on sequential charts. From my side I can only add that it's better to use your own brain for thinking and reconsidering using volume profile in all the cases, especially on decentralized markets (unless you're aggregating ALL the volume data from everywhere, including options, OTC etc).
Here is it, for you
CDOI ProfileCumulative Delta of Open Interest Profile
This script lets you visualize where there were Open Interest build-ups and discharges on a price basis.
It only supports pairs where TradingView added the appropriate Open Interest data (at the time of posting that is only Binance and Kraken perpetual contracts)
The script uses my own functions to poll lower timeframe data and compile it into a higher timeframe profile. And as such, it needs some tweaking to adjust it to your timeframe until Tradingview lets me do it codewise (hopefully one day)
The instructions for using the Indicators are as follows:
Condition: How often a new profile should be generated
Sampling Rate and 1/Nth of the TF: These have to be calculated together to have a product that should correspond to the current timeframe in minutes. A few examples below
----------- Sampling - 1Nth of the TF
5 min ------- 5 --------------- 1
10 min ------ 10 ------------- 1
15 min ------ 5 --------------- 3
20 min ------ 10 ------------- 2
30 min ------ 10 -------------- 3
45 min ------- 9 -------------- 5
1 hour ------- 10 ------------- 6
4 hours ----- 10 -------------- 24
1 day -------- 10 ------------- 144
Transparency: This one is pretty self-explanatory but only applies to the Profile bars
% change for a bar: This one indicates how precise each bar will be, but if you go too low the script becomes too heavy and stop running
Bar limit: Limits the amounts of bars the script is run for (ae for the last 1000 bars). Lower = faster loading, too high will stop running
UI color: Color and transparency of the center line and the box surrounding the whole profile
Swing Assassin's Consolidated ScriptI put this script together to essentially consolidate a number of scripts that I use on a daily basis into one script. This is an ongoing improvement effort, so there may be some garbage in here right now so keep that in mind if you intend to use this to help in your trading.
There are 5 moving averages (Hull). I use the Fast, Mid and Slow to find entries after I us the Medium Slow and Super Slow to identify a trend. Otherwise, I have those three turned off.
This script also uses Bollinger Bands which I literally cannot trade without.
The script also has anchored VWAP , automated support/resistance lines, and a homebrewed Volume Profile that is a copy from Ildar Akhmetgaleev's indicator "Poor Man's Volume Profile" used under Mozilla Public License Version 2.0.
SpaceTime Profile CompositesSpaceTime Profile Composites
SpaceTime Profiel Composites provides an alternative composite builder to the existing solution in the SpaceTime Profile Advanced.
Using the new pinev5 I utilize the ability for user confirmed data to give them the choice in time in a more interactable and user friendly way.
The main advantage of this is the ability to create multiple composites without multiple uses of SpaceTime Profile Advanced, additionally the user can select the indicator and edit the composite start time using the chart as opposed to the date picker in pine.
The indicator is fully fleshed out with all the features:
PoC
NPoC
Single Prints
Naked Single Prints
Value Area
Value Area Levels
Naked Value Area Levels
Excess
Poor highs and lows
Initial Balance
Auto TickSize
Auto TickSize
This has been heavily adjusted to allow greater detail, and less reliant on volatility, should this work well consistently SpaceTime Profile Advanced may also recieve this change to auto ticksize.
How To Use
Composites are best utilized when multiple value areas are overlapping with their POCS in range of the previous VA's, using a composite
the user is able to generate the greater picture for how this area will provide useful levels of interest, instead of multiple smaller profiles, the user can utilize one larger profile to give more accurate levels of reaction.
Single PrintsThis indicator plots Single Print levels when applied on the 30min time frame.
In the settings the user can change:
Level Colors
Level Width
Level Linestyle (Dotted, Dashed, Solid)
Toggle Retested Levels on/off
Toggle Profile Mode on/off
______________________________________________
Limitations:
1. Must be on 30min time frame. If you use other time frames to trade I recommend using a separate chart.
2. By default, retested levels are set to hide. For some tickers, the time/space between the creation of the Single Print, and the retest of that Single Print is too large. This causes errors due to a limitation from Tradingview. However, this limitation does not effect untested (naked) Single Prints. Naked Single Prints can be drawn accurately for any ticker without error, so that is the default setting.
______________________________________________
About Single Prints:
Single Prints come from Market Profile charting.
They represent a breakout from an old area of value to a newer area of value.
After a confirmed breakout from value, the extreme of the old area of value is the Single Print.
The level is often sensitive and can provide good trade locations especially on lower time frames.
Gaps % Size DistributionThis tool is to visualize the distribution of gap % sizes, i.e. those things that I marked on the main chart. The tool uses the entire history of an instrument.
The detalization depends on the Binning Step parameter. The lower chart timeframe the lower that step should be.
Good luck.
PRIME - Krypto Kiss+CCI+VPIntroducing from Prime Academy, the experimental "KryptO Kis$" algorithm, which combines our most powerful scripts all in one indicator. Available to the user are a full options platform to adjust parameters as well as individually blind indications for precise chart analysis. The following algorithms have been utilized:
* Prime Pulse (3 Candle System) - The original impulse and momentum indication system, it take rsi and tsi data to provide users with the indication of initial impulses, as well as a yellow candle to ascertain when there is a possible change of momentum in the current impulse.
* 5 SMA - The original Sniper Cross system seen from previous strategies, using the 4, 21, 50, 185, and 800 SMA's to determine changes of trend, continuation and support levels.
*CCI Indication on Chart - The system provides realtime CCI data in correlation to price positions within the general chart matrix, receiving system variables from various crosses on the 100 to -100 scale for CCI. Bullish and Bearish indications are clearly defined by separate colors.
* Volume Profile with tags - This system provides current volume data for the current time frame and sequence, also giving available tags at prices holding high volume orders, historically and present as indicated by the difference in length of indications. color saturations indicate the intensity of volume at the price in question .
* Shadow ZoneZ - Provides Support and resistance levels using rsi overbought and over sold data, sourced on the close of previous prices. Also embedded in the code is an additional volume confluence via indications of dotted lines with prices available, giving sequence positions of "Whales" and their support and resistance levels by order volume at price.
* An added bonus of the Shadow ZoneZ is the auto trend line and trend channel function , as well as the highlighted zones of liquidity waiting to be filled from previous impulses and lack of present retracements.
Any questions can be directed here on site via Direct Message. Any feedback is welcomed, and thank you in advance. Trade Well, Family!

Waindrops [Makit0]█ OVERALL
Plot waindrops (custom volume profiles) on user defined periods, for each period you get high and low, it slices each period in half to get independent vwap, volume profile and the volume traded per price at each half.
It works on intraday charts only, up to 720m (12H). It can plot balanced or unbalanced waindrops, and volume profiles up to 24H sessions.
As example you can setup unbalanced periods to get independent volume profiles for the overnight and cash sessions on the futures market, or 24H periods to get the full session volume profile of EURUSD
The purpose of this indicator is twofold:
1 — from a Chartist point of view, to have an indicator which displays the volume in a more readable way
2 — from a Pine Coder point of view, to have an example of use for two very powerful tools on Pine Script:
• the recently updated drawing limit to 500 (from 50)
• the recently ability to use drawings arrays (lines and labels)
If you are new to Pine Script and you are learning how to code, I hope you read all the code and comments on this indicator, all is designed for you,
the variables and functions names, the sometimes too big explanations, the overall structure of the code, all is intended as an example on how to code
in Pine Script a specific indicator from a very good specification in form of white paper
If you wanna learn Pine Script form scratch just start HERE
In case you have any kind of problem with Pine Script please use some of the awesome resources at our disposal: USRMAN , REFMAN , AWESOMENESS , MAGIC
█ FEATURES
Waindrops are a different way of seeing the volume and price plotted in a chart, its a volume profile indicator where you can see the volume of each price level
plotted as a vertical histogram for each half of a custom period. By default the period is 60 so it plots an independent volume profile each 30m
You can think of each waindrop as an user defined candlestick or bar with four key values:
• high of the period
• low of the period
• left vwap (volume weighted average price of the first half period)
• right vwap (volume weighted average price of the second half period)
The waindrop can have 3 different colors (configurable by the user):
• GREEN: when the right vwap is higher than the left vwap (bullish sentiment )
• RED: when the right vwap is lower than the left vwap (bearish sentiment )
• BLUE: when the right vwap is equal than the left vwap ( neutral sentiment )
KEY FEATURES
• Help menu
• Custom periods
• Central bars
• Left/Right VWAPs
• Custom central bars and vwaps: color and pixels
• Highly configurable volume histogram: execution window, ticks, pixels, color, update frequency and fine tuning the neutral meaning
• Volume labels with custom size and color
• Tracking price dot to be able to see the current price when you hide your default candlesticks or bars

█ LIMITS
This indicator only works on intraday charts (minutes only) up to 12H (720m), the lower chart timeframe you can use is 1m
This indicator needs price, time and volume to work, it will not work on an index (there is no volume), the execution will not be allowed
The histogram (volume profile) can be plotted on 24H sessions as limit but you can plot several 24H sessions
█ ERRORS AND PERFORMANCE
Depending on the choosed settings, the script performance will be highly affected and it will experience errors
Two of the more common errors it can throw are:
• Calculation takes too long to execute
• Loop takes too long
The indicator performance is highly related to the underlying volatility (tick wise), the script takes each candlestick or bar and for each tick in it stores the price and volume, if the ticker in your chart has thousands and thousands of ticks per bar the indicator will throw an error for sure, it can not calculate in time such amount of ticks.
What all of that means? Simply put, this will throw error on the BITCOIN pair BTCUSD (high volatility with tick size 0.01) because it has too many ticks per bar, but lucky you it will work just fine on the futures contract BTC1! (tick size 5) because it has a lot less ticks per bar
There are some options you can fine tune to boost the script performance, the more demanding option in terms of resources consumption is Updates per period , by default is maxed out so lowering this setting will improve the performance in a high way.

█ HOW-TO SETUP
The basic parameters to adjust are Period size , Ticks per bar and Pixels per bar
• Period size is the main setting, defines the waindrop size, to get a better looking histogram set bigger period and smaller chart timeframe
• Ticks per bar is the tricky one, adjust it differently for each underlying (ticker) volatility wise, for some you will need a low value, for others a high one.
To get a more accurate histogram set it as lower as you can (min value is 1)
• Pixels per bar allows you to adjust the width of each histogram bar, with it you can adjust the blank space between them or allow overlaping
You must play with these three parameters until you obtain the desired histogram: smoother, sharper, etc...
These are some of the different kind of charts you can setup thru the settings:
• Balanced Waindrops (default): charts with waindrops where the two halfs are of same size.
This is the default chart, just select a period (30m, 60m, 120m, 240m, pick your poison), adjust the histogram ticks and pixels and watch
• Unbalanced Waindrops: chart with waindrops where the two halfs are of different sizes.
Do you trade futures and want to plot a waindrop with the first half for the overnight session and the second half for the cash session? you got it;
just adjust the period to 1860 for any CME ticker (like ES1! for example) adjust the histogram ticks and pixels and watch
• Full Session Volume Profile: chart with waindrops where only the first half plots.
Do you use Volume profile to analize the market? Lucky you, now you can trick this one to plot it, just try a period of 780 on SPY, 2760 on ES1!, or 2880 on EURUSD
remember to adjust the histogram ticks and pixels for each underlying
• Only Bars: charts with only central and vwap bars plotted, simply deactivate the histogram and volume labels
• Only Histogram: charts with only the histogram plotted (volume profile charts), simply deactivate the bars and volume labels
• Only Volume: charts with only the raw volume numbers plotted, simply deactivate the bars and histogram

EXAMPLES
Full Session Volume Profile on MES 5m chart:
Full Session Unbalanced Waindrop on MNQ 2m chart (left side Overnight session, right side Cash Session):
The following examples will have the exact same charts but on four different tickers representing a futures contract, a forex pair, an etf and a stock.
We are doing this to be able to see the different parameters we need for plotting the same kind of chart on different assets
The chart composition is as follows:
• Left side: Volume Labels chart (period 10)
• Upper Right side: Waindrops (period 60)
• Lower Right side: Full Session Volume Profile
The first example will specify the main parameters, the rest of the charts will have only the differences
MES :
• Left: Period size: 10, Bars: uncheck, Histogram: uncheck, Execution window: 1, Ticks per bar: 2, Updates per period: EACH BAR,
Pixels per bar: 4, Volume labels: check, Track price: check
• Upper Right: Period size: 60, Bars: check, Bars color mode: HISTOGRAM, Histogram: check, Execution window: 2, Ticks per bar: 2,
Updates per period: EACH BAR, Pixels per bar: 4, Volume labels: uncheck, Track price: check
• Lower Right: Period size: 2760, Bars: uncheck, Histogram: check, Execution window: 1, Ticks per bar: 1, Updates per period: EACH BAR,
Pixels per bar: 2, Volume labels: uncheck, Track price: check
EURUSD :
• Upper Right: Ticks per bar: 10
• Lower Right: Period size: 2880, Ticks per bar: 1, Pixels per bar: 1
SPY :
• Left: Ticks per bar: 3
• Upper Right: Ticks per bar: 5, Pixels per bar: 3
• Lower Right: Period size: 780, Ticks per bar: 2, Pixels per bar: 2
AAPL :
• Left: Ticks per bar: 2
• Upper Right: Ticks per bar: 6, Pixels per bar: 3
• Lower Right: Period size: 780, Ticks per bar: 1, Pixels per bar: 2

PineCoders for all they do, all the tools and help they provide and their involvement in making a better community
scarf for the idea of coding a waindrops like indicator, I did not know something like that existed at all
All the Pine Coders, Pine Pros and Pine Wizards, people who share their work and knowledge for the sake of it and helping others, I'm very grateful indeed
I'm learning at each step of the way from you all, thanks for this awesome community;
Opensource and shared knowledge: this is the way! (said with canned voice from inside my helmet :D)

GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY TRADING!
Silen's Pseudo VPVR / Pseudo Volume Profile Custom RangeDisclamer: This indicator does not use actual Volume data and doesn't display any Volume data. It creates a pseudo Volume Profile by counting the high-low-2 values of candles and simulates something that is similar to a Volume Profile without using any Volume data.
Core facts:
Creates a pseudo Volume Profile by counting values of candles and sorting them into a Profile.
Works for charts that don't provide any Volume Information.
Can display up to 5 different Value Levels.
Value level colors are (from largest to smallest level): Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue.
The Value levels can be used as Support and Resistance indicators.
The Custom Range of the Volume Profile can be adjusted from 10 to 1500 bars.
Much faster than the other custom pseudo VPVRs out there.
Shortcomings:
As the chart progresses with bars the line positions will distort to the left side. Refreshing the tradingview page or switching to another time interval fixes this. I might fix this issue in the future.
Does not use actual Volume nor display actual Volume.
Note: For those who wondered what happened to my first version of this indicator: It got taken down by Tradingview because it was misleading as to using the words "Volume Profile" and "Visible Range". I fully support their decision and I hope I could clear any misunderstandings! Give their team a heads up for the hard work they're doing in keeping this place clean and well organized!
Enjoy! :)
